The way you deep condition your hair is just as important as what product you choose to deep condition your hair with. This video is to show the dramatic impact that deep conditioning WITH HEAT every week had on my hair in just 1 year. The way I deep conditioned my hair completely changed my hair in every aspect as far as the texture, the way my hair sat, the way it absorbed and retained moisture, curl definition, shine, etc and it's almost as if I have a brand new set of hair on my head. This video shows a timeline of how my hair has changed month by month in just 1 year.
I'm getting joseline Hernandez vibes lol your really pretty
you arent the first to say this lmao thank you!
Alexis Johnson PLEASE don't compare her to joseline....
Mia Porche lol she looks like her
Mia Porche She looks like her.
Keisha Nicole If one more person says this.... my point was that this young lady is classy and beautiful and the comparison is horrible whether she resembles her or not! Thank you...
I feel like crying because I was literally so frustrated with my hair because of how dry and undefined it was...every single problem you ran into is exactly what I've been dealing with! I know my hair got potential, so ima try this!! thanks for this!!
Did you try it?
Hey did you try it?
Did it work??
Same I thought I was doing everything right but my hair keeps knotting. I realized that I wasn’t deep conditioning, I would literally shampoo and do a quick conditioner for a few minutes and rinse. Now I m trying to do it weekly and co wash only.
Adia Carter legend says she's relaxed now
This video changed my hair's life. I have more curl definition, it is softer, retains moisture! I have 4c hair and I am dying to try a wash and go
What deep conditioner would you recommend for 4c hair?
@@leylazeee I'm now seeing this. I use the argan oil by the cream of nature deep conditioning masque. It's really good. I add heat to it though because I don't get results without it. I try to switch up my DC once in a while but my argan oil stays faithful.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRY PLUTO PUPS FIRST ?
also the longer your hair gets it loosens your curl pattern gets I notice when I went natural almost 5 years ago
Now 7 years
Really? Because I've been natural for approximately 6 years now maybe 5 I'm not really sure, but my hair was really curly up until a few weeks ago. After I took out my protective style, my hair seems more wavy than curly and it's freaking me out because I want my curls not waves. And it's not due to heat damage because I don't flat iron my hair or use heat unless it's for my deep conditioner. A hair lady told me to do a protein treatment and I did yesterday. I hope it helps
Lone Wolf I think that as your hair gets longer there’s more weight to it so it will end up loosening up regardless but I heard protein treatments are good at maintaining a defined curl pattern, how was your protein treatment?
@@BananasForSale I did the treatment and I saw a little bit of difference. But there's still more waves than curls or the ends are curly and in the middle it's wavy. I also had my ends trimmed which made a slight difference. But my hair is really frizzy and poofy. I think it's the hair product I'm using rn
Lone Wolf if your hair was not frizzy and poofy before the treatment just be careful with protein because protein treatments can cause things like that especially if you’re protein sensitive
This is so true. This is exactly what happened to my hair after I started using a hooded dryer or my microwaveable heating cap, although the dryer seems to work better. Your hair and wash and gos will change for the better once you have that moisture going in. I even had my hair taking the shape of my bonnet and staying that way as well. Now my hair just falls down out of my bonnet and it doesn't shrink as much and lays so much better so I can attest to how true the info in this video is.
+Christian Parker omgggg you are the first person who can fully attest to this !! I love you for this comment!! And thanks so much for mentioning about the hooded dryer being better than the heating cap because I THOUGHT that it was but I wasn't completely sure on that. So you basically confirmed my thinking!
No problem! I saw this and knew I had to comment cause it was so on point for what I've dealt with and yes heat makes a world of difference when deep conditioning!
KAYLYN IVY Hi! Thx for sharing your DC results. How long do you sit under the dryer with the deep conditioner in your hair? Also after you add your styling products do you go back under the dryer, diffuse, blow dry or air dry?
+Mildred Bean / NaturalSilverSista hi Mildred! I sit under the hair dryer for an hour but 30 mins would honestly be good enough . I'm just extra lol but I always air dry my hair after I style it
Christian Parker What DC did you use?
she's super pretty
Thank youuu! :)
THANKS ALIREYANE
Another alternative if you don't have a dryer is to heat up your deep conditioner before applying it or your hair or apply the conditioner cover with a cap and use a hand held dryer for about 5 mins then tie your hair with a scarf to hold the heat in.
Joshie Thank you! this is smart
Joshie thanks for that😊 great idea
Joshie thank you!
I appreciate this tip so much, thank you.
I have used a handheld dryer to apply some heat on my hair with the deep conditioner on it & it does work.
If your hair was high porosity then it would have been absorbing moisture this whole time. What you describe is low porosity -- the cuticles were not lifting to let in moisture. Most naturals with low porosity hair suggest using heat with deep conditioning (or even warming up products a bit) to combat this.
I AM ALREADY IN COMBAT MODE ?
Great video! My daughter NEEDS to deep condition with heat! BTW you give Whitney Houston vibes 😊
Thats such an amazing compliment ! thank you! lol :)
OMG! I was thinking that too, but then I saw a bit of Rihanna too!
Dr. Simple Beauty 300 exactly! I was sitting here thinking she could rlly pass for Whitney 😂😂😂
Dr. Simple Beauty 300 I was thinking Yaya she played Whitney. but she does look like a young whitney.
VERY IMPORTANT TIP: I think you have it backwards. Porosity is about how much moisture your hair retains; not loses. You obviously have LOW porosity hair: cuticles that lay flat and are closed so moisture will not escape from it as readily. *Yet the flip side to that is the hair doesn't let it in as easily either* . That's why you had no results after all that time - the moisture couldn't get past your cuticles. You need heat to loosen and open them up then once conditioned the moisture will stay in for a long time. Deep conditioning with heat isn't necessary for those with HIGH porosity or even some of those with thin hair shafts (it could weigh thinner hair down). High porosity hair doesn't need to use heat because the cuticles are already open -- some even have short cuticles that don't cover one another - so they need to have theirs *closed after conditioning* so the moisture is retained. So that's why using cool water rinsing air after conditioning, and cool air setting on the dryer or blow dryer, after DEEP conditioning, works best for HIGH porosity hair.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing
Do you suggest high porosity hair shouldn’t use a head dryer to deep condition? Or what about just a plastic cap/bag? Or plastic cap and head dryer together ? What you think?
If you ever see this😆 know this is years ago
@@sakariyasmine4014 Personally, I have low porosity 4C hair so I have to use a heating cap/hooded dryer/blow dryer when I deep condition but I wouldn’t think that high porosity people have to use those things since their hair lets in moisture easily. As the op said, the cuticles of high porosity people need to be closed after deep conditioning to retain the moisture by using cool air/water...so yeah I don’t think a high porosity person would have to use those things
I mean she managed to figure out her hair, so who cares if she has scientific stuff right or not?
You probably have low porosity hair that doesnt absorb product well. Ive always deep conditioned with out heat and it worked fine for me because i have high prosity hair. Glad you found what works for you boo!
MrsJPinder. Yep. Exactly what I was thinking.
MrsJPinder I agree definitely low porosity.
MrsJPinder Yup! Low porosity..
MrsJPinder Okay, but the bottom line is, deep conditioning with heat can have great effects on your hair no matter what your perosity level is. It's beneficial to everyone.
MrsJPinder yes I use body heat I leave it on with a shower cap for an hour
I swear u remind me of Serahya from empire. Like gorg
same thought!
So true
Frrrr
If that isn't her she's definitely her doppelganger cause wow!!
DONT SWEAR JESUS MUST HAVE BEEN RUDE TOO
It's funny to see this video, because I was just prepping to deep condition with heat, because I've been having the same problem that you had - dry, crispy hair, constant frizziness, wash and gos / twists outs only last one day, having to get my hair wet everyday - but getting it wet just makes it drier, crispier and more shrunken, etc. So I just thought to myself that maybe I need to start DCing with heat again. And there your video was. Let's hope it works.
you look so much like that girl in black panther! tchalla's sister.
Thank you for this video I have now realized the problem with my hair and I will be taking steps to incorporate heat back into my regimen
yayy! thanks for watching! I hope my channel is of help to you ! use a hooded dryer it's seriously EVERYTHING!!

Omg your hair before heat looks and reminds me of mine! I'm purchasing a hooded dryer asap. Thank you!
chellisfavorite - I have to get a hooded dryer as well. What is a good deep conditioner?
Bold and Beautiful Naturally shea moisture Jamaican black castor oil masque and Aussie moist 3 minute miracle
Honeygold sameee I'm gonna purchase that ASAPP
Hey girl ! Did you notice a difference ?
Same!!!
Ik this works bc I saw this video a while ago and started deep conditioning, and literally my hair did the same thing and it’s not as long as hers😭👏🏼👏🏼I’m talking movement and everything🙌🏼
you're really pretty with and without makeup
thanks soooo much!!

Gurrrlll yes!! I watched this video and have done this for 3 months every week. Outta all the videos on hair care this was simple and it WORKS! Thank you! Dammit!! THANK YOU
Lol You’re welcome !!
I love how you express how important deep conditioning is cause it's true !! I know some naturals who don't deep conditioning & I just be shook ! It's crazy how your hair changed SO much in just a year ! It's like a whole different texture 😂!! I'm glad you found out what works for your hair !! & btw do you have any social media we can follow you on ? Love your videos xx ❤️
yesss it's seriously the most important part of a curly hair routine and makes all the difference lol I can look at some naturals and instantly tell whether they do or don't deep condition ! thanks so much for watching ! and I have IG @KaylynIvy xoxo :)
Curly Tops I couldn't believe either.
@@KaylynIvy hghf gcgglean gghhcb
@@KaylynIvy zorch yessing
**sigh** I know this is probably my problem. But I am soooooooo lazy when it comes to deep conditioning period let alone either heat
Lemme fix my life and get on track.
Girllll who you tellinggg but yes... we gots to get our stuff together
Thanks. I have gotten really lazy with the deep conditioning in my routine. This video reminded me of how important it is.
Thanks for this video. Been doing this for about 2months now and my hair has never been better. No more puffy roots, hair hanging, and curls clumping like never before lol. I seem so dramatic but this was a game changer for my routine!💆🏾♀️💆🏾♀️💆🏾♀️
Wow.. this is probably what I need to start doing. My hair takes the shape of my scarves at night and I have to fluff like crazy. I have a hooded dryer but I'm so lazy. Hoping this can solve my wash and go woes. Thanks so much for this video! It seems simple, but this video shows evidence.
thanks for watching!! and yes its something so simple that can make all the difference!
I definitely felt a difference in my hair when I applied heat to my deep conditioning. I realize now my hair can benefit from deep conditioning every week. This video changed my life 😍
I loved this !! You stuck it through until the end beautiful results your hair is gorgeous and full !
thanksss name twinnn! welcome to the teammm !!
I'm hoping this is the solution to my frizzy, tangled, puffy, definition-lacking, dry 4a hair problems...
That's beautiful. Your hair texture changed from 4b to 3c. Cray cray...I always theorized proper care and moisture could change hair texture. And, my hair texture changed also just from co washing 4 days a week. Tues, Thurs, Sat & Sun. Maybe I will try this instead...Moisture is key ladies....
MISS URIEL THE VOICE it also got longer. More hang time= looser curls
@@harryskittyz Not neccessarily.
i don’t think her hair texture changed out of her head, I just think her actual hair texture was able to show because her hair was dry, and dry hair means no moisture, and no moisture means no definition/shine/etc. so she probably was always 3c, but her hair lacked moisture so no 3c curl definition
and you’re right it is beautiful! (2 years late lol)
@@bestofbothworlds4736 yes
True statement!.. a lot of females think that natural hair is suppose to be dry, crunchy but it's not it can retain moisture ... so much beauty in healthy hair
I feel like my whole life has been a lie. I've been natural for about 3 years and my hair looks exactly like yours BEFORE you started deep conditioning it with a hooded dryer. My hair is extremely dry to the point where I don't have to use a towel to dry my hair, my hair soaks up the water in seconds! I've tried every hair moisturizer but my hair never really soaks in the product. When my hair is wet and conditioner I can clearly see my curl pattern but after drying it my hair looks completely different! I'm going to try this method asap and thank you so so so much for this video, bless you girl!
I saw this video and bought and started xeep conditioning with heat right after watching it and it CHANGED MY FLIPPIN LIFE. it was awesome because we have very similar curls so watching this video was a glimpse into what my hair could look like and it totally worked! this was by far the most informative natural hair video I've seen that actually lives up to what it's talking about! Thanks A TON!!
+Kiara Worthy this comment just made my life ! I appreciate this more than you think lol ❤️
How often do you ladies deep condition with heat?
+Kenya Edwards once per week
what deep conditioner do you use?
@@moeshalamptey3762 Soultacials
My hair was a lot curlier and dryer when I first big chopped. But once I started Co washing my hair texture changed as well curls are looser and has more moisture so it has it pros and cons
You'll probably find your hair is lying more flat and hanging down more because you hair is longer and thus heavier. What do you think?
nope i still think it was deep conditioning. deep conditioning took away my hairs dryness and stiffness and overall bettered the texture of my hair which made it fall
Cool.
I think the hair got longer...aka retained length...due to the changes she made in her treatment. It's apparent the way the hair transitioned over the year. Many folks' hair is the same length it was a year ago due to not properly caring for it.
I disagree, because my hair is her length right now, and still doesn't hang down. I will start deep conditioning with heat to see a change...
I 100% agree about using heat with your deep conditioner. I have a heat cap that I've had for a long time, but my go to is my hair steamer. I think steam is excellent for helping the conditioner penetrate your hair.
I keep watchin these natural hair videos cause all da girls are so damn fine bruh
I started deep conditioning my 4c hair couple of months now and ive been natural for 6 years... I wasnt taking care of my 4c hair nor did I know how to. sigh keep fighting the good fight ladies.
whats your routine like?
I want to thank you for doing this video! I decided to get a hair bonnet dryer and do my deep conditioning and I sat under it for about 30 minutes and already I’ve noticed a huge difference in my hair, I almost feel like I put a texturizer in it or something because it’s hanging more, less frizzy, and super moisturized and curlier. Please keep doing more vids 🙏🏽
Amazing !! Thanks for the update Savonn !! 🙌🏽
too bad she don't show us how to heat conditionned her hair, I am french, my english comprehension is not so good, please make a video how you do , thanks
Wow! I have curly and it was behaving exactly like yours but about 50 times worse! I missed a lot of outings for the past 3 years of my natural journey because my hair looked so awful. It was dry and stiff and would not even blow in the wind! I deep conditioned with heat for the first time last week and it totally changed my hair for the better. After just ONCE my hair is moisturized and the shrinkage is very minimal. Will continue to use this method! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! My hair life has changed!!
yayy! im so happy for you !! just think about how this is only the beginning! stay consistent and you'll see a completely new set of hair on your head in no time! the best is yet to come! :)
whodeenee43 what deep conditioners did you use please?
Wow your results did change!
Ive been doing this for a few months and its changed my hair for the better! This videos a gem
Yayy! I’m glad it’s working for you ! I appreciate you coming back and giving feedback ! :)
OMG thanks you for posting this! 😩🙏🏾 my hair has been extra dry for 3 yrs now... like yes 3yrs 😑 and I seriously thought that's just how it was supposed to look. My hair looks and acts exactly like your "before". Girl you just saved my hair bc I have contemplating perming it, dreading, or cutting it all off again. I'm investing in a hooded dryer asap. Thanks again for the major insight ❤️
Thnx for documenting & sharing your journey! I love when people have before & after footage so we can actually SEE the difference they're discussing.
I need a hooded dryer in my life 😣 Great video, I can definitely relate to what you've said. thanx
+Dee Chambers thanks for watching! And it's def worth the one time investment !!
Dee Chambers I finally decided to purchase a Laila Ali ionic hooded dryer a month ago and it was one of the best decisions I've made for my natural hair since starting my journey over a year ago. My deep conditioner sessions are so much better now!
Dee Chambers sallys has a hooded bonnet dryer you put on your hair dryer for $8.99 it works great
Dee Chambers use a hooded "portable" dryer. You can get it from beauty supply stores for under $10. You sick a hair dryer through the hole and it blows up to be like a hooded dryee
Your hair 'behaved' like 4C because that's the way you were 'treating it' (but you are a 4!). Your hair didn't CHANGE per say but rather you actually brought out the true pattern of your hair by WORKING with it! I am 4C (hard to distinguish curl pattern sister) and have to work at bringing my pattern to light, but you weren't even really doing that much so it RESEMBLED 4C because obviously that is where it will go if you don't CARE FOR IT. Good to know. Good video.
First off, you have such a unique face, its so pleasant to stare at lol. Secondly you really dropped some gems with proof in this video. So happy I clicked! You gave real information most people just be like 'Just use this product' and its like bruh. theres gotta be more to it 🙄 so thank you. gonna check out your other vids
My hair did the SAME thing. I wish I could post pictures. My hair changed soooo much just from co-washing. It looked like my texture changed, but I really believe it was just holding more moisture. Therefore, it was shiny, and the wash-n-go's got to the point where I didn't even need gel. I only used conditioner. My hair grew to bra strap length (curly) with wash n gos ONLY. I cut it two years ago :( and am growing it back out. But you are SO CORRECT!!!!
I use to just condition my hair and get under the dryer for about 5-10 minutes. I did not notice anything different with my hair and my hair was still dry after I rinsed out the conditioner in cold water. The process kept my hair looking and feeling dry. Last year I made some changes. I started to deep conditioned my hair every time I washed it and I stay under the dryer for about 20-30 minutes. I rinse my hair out in warm water and notice my hair felt soft and moisturized. I also, incorporated oiling my scalp with Sulfur 8. I no longer have flakes and my scalp does not itch. My hair feels and looks healthy, it has grew and gotten fuller. I am so happy that I found what works for my hair. I notice my wash and goes doesn't shrink as much as well. My hair texture is 4c.
Do you use sulfates?
My hair always dry...and am deep conditioning every week🤔🤔🤔🤔but without heat...❤️so bcoz of u now I know why...thank you soo much ❤️❤️❤️😘but I don't have hooded dryer so am gonna use just regular dry...❤️❤️
+Sameera salah hot air is KEY! I'm sure you'll see a major difference once you incorporate some sort of dryer into your deep conditioning routine. My hooded dryer literally saved my hair lol
Sameera salah I saw someone put the deep conditioner in their hair first ,cover with a plastic bag , then put a hot towel over the plastic bag and then another plastic bag over it then a bonnet over everything. So you could try that.
DeathGodPain96 ❤️❤️❤️🤗thank you pretty ❤️❤️am gonna try that too...❤️😘
KAYLYN IVY I will try it soon❤️❤️thank you❤️
You resemble Keke Palmer. Very pretty. But thank you I'm going through this now. I didn't understand y my hair stayed so dry after my deep conditioning treatments or my protein treatments etc. But you have a new subbie. I love when someone can teach me something.
I get that a lot but I cant see it at all lol gotta be some truth to it though since I get it so often! but thanks for subscribing Precious and welcome to the teammm!!
I was thinking more along the lines that she reminds me of the girl that plays Tiana on Empire.
Precious Jones I was thinking the same thing!
You kinda look like Tiannah from Enpire😊

Thank you for this video. I too have low porosity hair and had the same problem you had. For the past 2 weeks I have deep conditioned my hair with steam and can already see the amazing results. I am shocked at how moisturized my hair is now and I've only done it twice. I used to have to apply oil every 2-3 days, but now it's only necessary on wash days which is once a week and I only use one oil now. You are right. The curls are much more loose, defined and softer. Again, thank you for sharing!
GORGEOUS! I've been noticing a big difference too. adding shampoo (sulfate or sulfate free) has also helped.
I never thought of using heat until watching your videos❤️❤️I thought I had dry 4b hair and thought it was weird that it was loose curly when wet and when I started deep conditioning with heat, my 3b,3c,4a texture started showing so thank you so much ! Love your channel.
yayyyy it's littt !!! thanks so much for sharing your results Jada! and thanks for watching ! :)
I swear y'all just wana be 3s so bad
You do realize this doesn’t “changed” your hair texture, right? It brings out the texture you ALREADY HAD. Dry hair is going to look different from moisturized hair period.
KAYLYN IVY *change
If that makes you feel better
This was such a good informative video!! I subbed!! Loved how detailed you were!! Keep it up gorgeous!! 🌸
We have the same hair type...not that i'm into hair typing but just to say it looks exactly how yours looks, so awesome! I found a "hair twin". Great video.Deep conditioning every week for me though is just such a drag. So to get that look I put a heavy dose of some type of leave-in conditioner and it looks just like that pic from your afters. The conditioner gives it a nice weight, body, flow, movement and of course moisture. Also, I think a major component in healthily moisturized hair is our diet and including healthy oily natural foods like avocados, nuts, olives and flax seed make such a great difference! Take care now. I enjoyed your video!
This happened to me as well people thought I was textlaxing and I'm like no my hair doesn't feel like hay anymore because it's got moisture that's all lmao
This just reminds me to deep condition everytime I shampoo. It's getting healthier as time goes on. I just need to be more consistent.
Nice, thanks for your story. It show me just how important it is to deep conditioner with some heat😊❣
Look like I need to spend more on my deep condition and use a hooded dryer not cap. 🤔 ok I'm willing to do that no more than $20 dollar tho. It really make sense when you think about it. All these cheap ones don't have beneficial ingredients in the top 5 or 10 ingredient like the real good ones.
I have to disagree. When I was new to all this natural stuff, I would beleive whatever youtubers would tell me. So I thought i HAD to use heat while conditionning. I would even warm my DC before using it and stay Under a hooded dryer for half an hour, for months. There was absolutely no change. Zero. A few months ago i went to a natural hair salon to see a curl expert, and she told me I really didn't need heat bc my hair is higly porous and would absorb products very easily. Putting a plastic cap for 10-15 mins would be enough. She even told me I didn't need to deep condition every week, only once in a month, more than that was a waste. Everyone's hair is different. We do not all need to deep condition often and we do not all need to use heat. Great video tho
Well I'm sure everyone's hair is different 😬
Yes exactly
Kanny I agree with you. My stylist tells me to use as little heat as possible on my hair as it is very fine. She deep conditions it once a month with heat. I condition it after every wash without heat. My body generates enough heat (while my hair is under a plastic cap for an hour). If I want to turn it up, I take a shower.
Yep
Do you deep condition it or regular condition it without the heat after every wash?
Hair twin! My hair looks exactly the same as yours did before you started applying heat to it while deep conditioning. I didn't know it could make such a huge difference. Definitely going to start getting under my dryer now, thanks for the video!
Best hair video I’ve seen! You’re the only person I’ve watch that has shown me how to solve my frizzy no definition problem! I’ve been doing the same thing as you (beginning of video)! THANK YOU for a solution!!
When I deep condition I don’t like the way my hair feels. It feels thin, but maybe I am so used to the way dry dehydrated hair feels.
Yes it is a Different! I use to think I was deep conditioning, I wasn't! But,.....when I started to use heat,.....OMGoodness! Now My hair is growing, it's strong, healthy, Moisturize, soft, manageable, prepoo, Co washing, is Indeed Improtant! so what I've been doing differently at the end of 2016 is using shampoo only once because my hair doesn't get dirty and then I was just use conditioner for at least four to five weeks and then use a clarifying shampoo to get rid of any build up and then start all over again my hair loves it so you are absolutely right thank you so much for sharing God bless you🍃💓🍃💓🍃💓🍃💓🙏
U look just like tiana from empire..i thought u was her. U her long lost twin. Omg
I will have to try this, my hair stays super dry even when I deep condition & use a plastic cap.
get you a hooded dryer and i bet you money you wont regret it!
Do you think it's better than a bonnet attachment?
+doThatGWalk no I don't think it's better than a bonnet attachment lol my sister actually has a bonnet attachment. I'd say they're the same. You just want that consistent hot air cause it's gonna get your deep conditioner "cookin" (of course not literally) lol
do you still wear a plastic cap underneath the hooded dryer?
Aja Matunda Yes but I haven't washed my hair all month because I want to keep my twist intact. I might get a steamer eventually but that's when I have some money for it; however it's the least of my worries rn. I like hot air on the bonnet attachment & I find it very relaxing.
omg i was actually so shocked with the result, i've been thinking all this time that my hair was 'naturally dry' and never bothered with wasting money on a deep conditioner. this video is gonna change my hair forever! what deep conditioner did u use?
I can relate! My hair is extremely dry , products, moisture evaporates in 2 seconds. I've deep conditioned without heat. I will try with . They keep on say heat is not good so I have abstained. I'm still in the struggle with products especially when I combine products. I would see white dots every where on application. So far gels like Eco damages my hair. I'm definitely Hi -Po . Products for Black hair / Black mixed hair are too expensive but what to do?!! I Pay close attention to ingredients. If I see sulfates, I'm not using it. I buy aloe Vera plants and condition my hair sometimes. I have gotten frustrated because I do my hair today, everything is all dried up and puffy and shrinkage is a major issue. I hate my hair short so Im back to ponytails and slicking down. I need to get back some confidence so my hair can breathe and be free. But finding right products that seal in moisture and last is a struggle.If I could only mix products even in the same line and use for example a leave -in, moisturizer then gel without seeing white, I would be ok. Thanks for video.
What shampoo and conditioner are you using at the moment?
Look up Maui Moisture, I use that. I'm sure Walgreens has it. Below 10$
Bella Mariposa heat is good with a plastic cap..and sit under dryer for 30 minutes or 45 minutes
For anyone reading this comment: there’s a test you can do to know if products may react badly to gel. Just run them together in your hands. If it forms those balls in your hands it’s going to do that in your hair. Hair mills seem to work better with gels. Finally Amber has a video about it.
I wish I knew this when I was natural. I suffered all the same issues and ended up relaxing my hair. Thankfully I learned how to better maintain and grow my relaxed hair, but I still miss being natural sometimes.
Thank you so much for this! I appreciate you showing it all, even the ones where your hair wasn't where you wanted it to be yet : ) It was really encouraging to see the drastic difference that the right hair care routine/products can make. And you look so adorable in those puffs 😄
You helped my hair so much I can’t thank you enough💜 I been natural all my life but never knew much about it it was long as s girl as I got older it would break when I tried a few texturizes from there down hill now in the passed 3 years I watched videos about natural hair out i ALLL IVE WATCHED none have ever had results like YOUR ADVICE💘💘💘 I see my hair is more fun to do and stay hydrated❤️❤️❤️ I almost feel like crying I’m so happy in all my years of struggle🙌🙌🙌
Ahhhh this is such good news ! I’m so happy I put out this video and it was able to help sooo many people ! Thank you so much for giving your feedback ❤️😊
KAYLYN IVY can’t thank you enough so glad you did very thankful keep putting out amazing videos I’m subscribed
Ugh, so glad I listened to you. I just DC my hair and it literally a different texture. At first my roots, especially at the top were so puffy, weren’t tame able, and would frizz up any chance they got. Now they’re silky, it’s weird. I can’t stop staring at how silky and shiny it is! I’m not gonna lie I did a quick dc, I didn’t really separate my hair like I should’ve but I will next time! I used to think DC was not that serious, but my hair (in some parts) look so moisturized, silky, and shiny.
lol yay I’m glad it worked for you ! Keep at it and you’ll see even better results in no time ! :)
I just randomly came across your channel and as soon as I seen the Peaches shirt, I knew you were from Chicago. haha. Great video.
best advice from a natural hair blogger in a very long time
That literally changed the texture of your hair the deep conditioner w/heat
I'm so happy I found someone with my same exact hair texture 3b/3c/4a/4b!!! It gets so hard to deal with all these damn textures because you have to cater to them differently. Like I have a little bit 4b hair at the crown of my head, so that part is always shorter then the rest because of breakage. And the area right at the top of my head I have loose 3b curls, that gets really frizzy. Then all around the perimeter of my hairline, I have fine 3c hair. And for the rest of my head I have 4a hair. It's a fucking mess tbh but I'm having the EXACT same issues as you were. I even have a hooded dryer, im just so lazy when it comes to getting out the shower and going back in to rinse it out 😭. I'll definitely give the hooded dryer method a try.
I can attest to this - since going natural for 3-4 years - I deep condition for a hour or so w/out heat. My hair takes little to no time in quick dry and low flat iron styling
What's wrong with puffy ? I love my hair when it's puffy, laying down , in a puff ,in a fro. As long as it is Healthy, I'm good.
Thats what I was thinking. Its fine to have your hair like this but where is the line drawn to where this kind of thing just becomes texturism? Everyone doesn't have to have looser curls to have moisturized healthy hair. Not to vome at the girl in the video cause she obviously found something that works for her but that just makes me think.
This video is super helpful!! I’m going to start working my deep conditioner into my roots. I’m having the same issue with puffy, dry roots
I can so relate to this video it took me 7 years to get it, i always say your hair isn’t hard to take care of it’s dry 🤝🏾
Your curls also start hanging more when your hair grows,. at least that's what happened to me.
You could also change the way you're washing your hair. If you normally shampoo your hair once then add conditioner. You could also try shampooing twice then adding conditioner to make sure there is no buildup. You should also pay attention to the temperature of the water you use to wash your hair. Hot/warm water is to open your cuticle and allow moisture in. Cold water is to seal. Make sure after washing you always run your hair in cold water to lock everything in.
These are great tips! Unfortunately, my hair absolutely hates cold water, which I understand is common with low porosity hair.

That's for high porosity hair
I’ve been doing this for three months and this has totally helped with my hairs natural curl pattern to become more moisturized and healthy.Also it loosened my curl pattern my hair hangs beautifully!! Thank you!!!
Since I've started deep conditioning my hair with heat my hair feels better and is much longer.
Omg I thought I was the only one, my hair change from 3B to 4a in a year! I use the same hooded dryer as you once a week for an hour. That's crazy! I think we have similar textures too
You most likely have low porosity hair just like me.
Thank you so much, I definitely will try this . I wondered why my hair is always up after I deep conditioned my natural hair. All I did was just apply the deep conditioner and after a few minutes I wash it out. So, I thank you for sharing.
new here saw u had to subscribe. ur gorgeous.
thank you!! and welcome to the teammmm!!
My hair is the same way! My hair appears curlier since I started deep conditioning every week. It's softer and it hangs more. Your hair is beautiful! 👌🏾
Your 'before' texture is equally beautiful. I personally don't want to use heat to change my hair texture to looser type 3 curls. nice video
I want to really thank you for this video. I have watched probably HUNDREDS of videos over the years about how to care for/manage natural hair and am currently on my 3rd big chop. The first 2 big chops I gave up b/c I could never get the defined curls (without gobs of Eco Styler) and softness I was looking for. This video, the Favorite Deep Conditioner videos and your Deep Condition Routine video easily brought about the results I was looking for. I am fully confident that I can and will succeed in my journey this go round. Anyone on the fence, give it a try. I did it right before I big chop and you could CLEARLY see the curls/volume/softness against the relaxed hair. That's why I went ahead and cut it. I was planning to go another year, but now I don't have to. Liking and subbing! Thank you, thank you, thank you again!
gorgeous
Thank youuu! :)
Thanks so much for this video. I have been deep conditioning but do not use heat and haven't had the results I was looking for. From now on Im doing the heat! Thankyou.
I don't normally watch videos on haircare but...
I'm going to start deep conditioning next wash day now! Thank you 😊 I don't have a sit-under hair dryer but I'm going to use a plastic cap and blow dryer and see what happens. I always feel like my hair is dry and needing a bit more moisture.
I love it! Very informative video. May I add also, that if you now add a few spoons of baking soda to your deep condition (let it rest for 5 minutes before applying) your hair will be even more different. I don't go under the dryer with it because it still does the job. I've been natural for 7 years and the first 2 years I couldn't do a wash and go because of the shrinkage. Now my curls don't shrink as much and are %90 more defined without gel. I don't use as much product as I did before and still get amazing results. I also do "Bentonite clay" mask which does almost the same in my opinion, but it's just a bit more expensive and difficult to find locally. Blessings and keep up the good work gorgeous. Thank you for your vídeos 💕
+Luna Azul thank youuu! And wow ! I never would have even thought to add baking soda to my deep condition! You learn somethin new everyday! 🌸
So your curls are now more elongated and defined simply because of deep conditioning with baking soda and the occasional clay mask?
Very useful make sense. I am Dominican and usually at the hair salon they make us stay in the dryer with treatment for about 30 mins. Make sense. Thanks 🙏🏽
This video is SOOOOOOOOO important. Thank you girl...You helped me make sense out of what's going on... I can't seem to grow my hair past my shoulders and I am going to incorporate hooded deep conditioning into my regimen.
